Govt. Warns FMC Union Against Strike

Speaking in Abuja at the formal presentation of the report of a fact-finding Committee into the industrial crisis that paralysed activities at the Federal Medical Centre, Owerri for the substantial part of 2014 and middle of 2015, Dr. Illoh said active players in the industrial space must seek to employ social dialogue in resolving industrial disagreement.

He stressed that if various actors in industrial disputes would embrace social dialogue in resolving their differences, the developmental agenda of government would be realized, adding that all management and union officials should see social dialogue as an indispensable tool in the resolution of disputes and do well to also bargain in good faith.

His words: "In his words the penchant to resort to strikes and disruption of work processes remains inimical to the overall development of the country and more importantly and in the case of Federal Medical Centre Owerri (FMCO) jeopardize the lives of Nigerians who need the services of the Centre in order to stay alive."
